Why George Zimmerman Can’t Have His Old Gun Back–Yet

Conservative heads are exploding because the Department of Justice isn’t giving George Zimmerman his gun back. Sanford police put a hold on it because the FBI requested that the return of the gun be held back until a civil rights investigation is completed. But Zimmerman is free to buy any other gun he wants, and will likely get back the gun that killed Trayvon Martin.

Sanford Police spokesman James McAuliffe says there is nothing preventing Zimmerman, who was acquitted in Martin’s murder, from purchasing another gun.

“I do not believe that there is” any legal reason Zimmerman would not be able to purchase another gun, McAuliffe told ABC News.
